zh-cn	下午好。
en-us	Good afternoon.

zh-cn	同往常一样，我将从最新数字开始。
en-us	As usual, I’ll start with the latest numbers.

zh-cn	截至日内瓦时间今天早上6点，中国有40235例确诊病例，909例死亡。
en-us	As of 6am Geneva time today, there were 40,235 confirmed cases in China, and 909 deaths.

zh-cn	在中国之外，24个国家有319例病例，其中1例死亡。
en-us	Outside China, there are 319 cases in 24 countries, with 1 death.

zh-cn	总的模式没有改变。
en-us	The overall pattern has not changed. 

zh-cn	99%的报告病例在中国，大多数病例为轻症。
en-us	99% of reported cases are in China, and most cases are mild. 

zh-cn	约2%的病例是致命的——当然这仍然太多了。
en-us	About 2% of cases are fatal – which of course is still too many.

zh-cn	很多人都在问，疫情会向哪里发展？
en-us	A lot of people are asking, where is the outbreak going? 

zh-cn	是越来越好，还是越来越糟？
en-us	Is it getting better, is it getting worse?

zh-cn	我们正在做一些事情来回答这些问题。
en-us	We are doing several things to answer those questions.

zh-cn	首先，明天开始的研究和创新会议将查明其中一些问题，并规划前进的道路。
en-us	First, the meeting on research and innovation starting tomorrow will identify some of those questions and chart a path forward.

zh-cn	其次，由Bruce Aylward博士率领的世卫组织专家先遣小组刚刚抵达中国，为规模更大的国际团队奠定基础。
en-us	Second, an advance team of WHO experts has just arrived in China, led by Dr Bruce Aylward, to lay the groundwork for the larger international team.

zh-cn	Bruce和他的同事们将与中国同行合作，确保我们团队拥有恰当的专业知识来回答恰当的问题。
en-us	Bruce and his colleagues will be working with their Chinese counterparts to make sure we have the right expertise on the team to answer the right questions.

zh-cn	我们感谢来自世界各地的许多人自愿提供其专业知识。
en-us	We’re grateful for the many people who have volunteered their expertise from all over the world.

zh-cn	最近几天，我们看到了一些没有去过中国的人传播疾病的令人担忧的例子，
en-us	In recent days we have seen some concerning instances of onward transmission from people with no travel history to China, 

zh-cn	比如昨天在法国和今天在英国报道的病例。
en-us	like the cases reported in France yesterday and the UK today.

zh-cn	发现的这些少量病例可能是将引发“更大火灾的火花”。
en-us	The detection of this small number of cases could be the spark that becomes a bigger fire.

zh-cn	但现在，这只是一个火花。
en-us	But for now, it’s only a spark. 

zh-cn	我们的目标仍然是遏制。
en-us	Our objective remains containment. 

zh-cn	我们呼吁所有国家利用我们拥有的机会之窗来防止更大的火灾。
en-us	We call on all countries to use the window of opportunity we have to prevent a bigger fire.

zh-cn	作为这些防范工作的一部分，世卫组织正在努力装备实验室，使之具备快速诊断病例的能力。
en-us	As part of those preparations, WHO is working to equip laboratories with the capacity to rapidly diagnose cases.

zh-cn	如果缺乏重要的诊断能力，各国对病毒传播得多远多广将一无所知，
en-us	Without vital diagnostic capacity, countries are in the dark as to how far and wide the virus has spread 

zh-cn	也不知道谁感染了冠状病毒或其它具有类似症状的疾病。
en-us	– and who has coronavirus or another disease with similar symptoms.

zh-cn	我们现在已经在全球范围内确定了168个拥有诊断冠状病毒的适当技术的实验室。
en-us	We have now identified 168 labs around the world with the right technology to diagnose coronavirus.

zh-cn	我们向喀麦隆、科特迪瓦、刚果民主共和国、埃及、埃塞俄比亚、加蓬、加纳、伊朗、肯尼亚、摩洛哥、尼日利亚、突尼斯、乌干达和赞比亚发放了诊断工具包。
en-us	We have sent kits to Cameroon, Cote d’Ivoire, DRC, Egypt, Ethiopia, Gabon, Ghana, Iran, Kenya, Morocco, Nigeria, Tunisia, Uganda and Zambia.

zh-cn	其中许多国家已经开始使用这些工具包。
en-us	Many of those countries have already started using them.

zh-cn	另一批15万台检测设备如今正在柏林组装，将发往各区域的80多个实验室。
en-us	Another shipment of 150,000 tests is being assembled in Berlin today, and is destined for more than 80 labs in all regions.

zh-cn	上周，非洲疾控中心在塞内加尔使用世卫组织发放的检测设备对12个国家进行了培训。
en-us	Last week the African CDC conducted training in Senegal with 12 countries, using tests sent by WHO. 

zh-cn	下周将在南非开展进一步培训。
en-us	Further training will take place in South Africa next week.

zh-cn	世卫组织将继续与所有国家合作，预防和快速发现新的冠状病毒病例，拯救生命。
en-us	WHO will continue working with all countries to prevent and detect rapidly new cases of coronavirus, and to save lives.

zh-cn	谢谢大家。
en-us	Thank you.
